An aircraft jet propulsion system is disclosed. The aircraft jet propulsion system may comprise a thermoelectric generator array ("TEG" array) coupled to a portion of the aircraft jet propulsion system, wherein the TEG array converts heat energy to electrical energy, and supplies power to the aircraft jet propulsion system, wherein the electrical energy is supplied to a power supply. The aircraft jet propulsion system may comprise an alternator that generates less energy than is required to power the aircraft jet propulsion system. The TEG array may supplement the energy generated by the alternator. The energy generated by the TEG array and the energy generated by the alternator may be sufficient to power the aircraft jet propulsion system and/or the electrical energy generated by the TEG array may be sufficient to power to aircraft jet propulsion system. |
